A configuration device in a test and measurement system including an event generator and a Device Under Test (DUT) to receive one or more events generated by the event generator includes an output display structured to graphically illustrate a first event timeline that includes source event markers for a first test channel for a second test channel, in which the first event timeline and the second event timeline appear on the output display as separate timelines vertically separated from one another. The position of the event delay indicator or a position of the event width indicator may be movable by a user, and moving the position of the event delay indicator or moving the position of the event width indicator causes the event generator to change one or more event generation parameters of the first event based on such movement. Methods are also disclosed.
